"If your guess is correct, we should be just one step behind you and be invited to remove the curse from this newborn."
Lu Yi's question was already quite implicit, but Li Hyuk did not beat around the bush and answered straightforwardly.
Although it is short, the amount of information is quite rich. It almost expresses its recognition of Lu Yi's understanding, and even admits that he was invited for the same reason.
"Because my ability is more targeted and my relationship is closer, I will be my first choice when the situation gets out of control..."
It seems that he did not expect that Li He was such a bachelor. With such clear recognition, Lu Yi felt reassured for a moment and quickly sorted out further details.
"After it has no effect, I will take greater risks and ask you for help. With your rank and knowledge, it is definitely worth it——"
"It's very smooth. What I'm more concerned about next is how you became like this, and where is the newborn?"
Unfortunately, Li Hyuk immediately interrupted his compliment and ruthlessly moved on to the next topic.
"How did it become like this..."
Unfortunately, it seems that the person involved himself is confused and unable to answer this question.
While talking to himself, Lu Yi's face was slightly distorted by memories.
"The subsequent memories are very vague... After the last attempt failed, they were very disappointed and even had a fierce quarrel..."
"Some people insisted on confessing to the night watchman, but the child's mother disagreed and hoped that I could try again..."
"I don't want to continue to participate and refuse to make any more unnecessary attempts. Of course I promised to keep the whole matter confidential..."
"However, just when I was about to leave, my body suddenly began to become stiff, and my perception seemed to be frozen. I only remembered the smell of blood everywhere, but there was no scream..."
…
Even the transformation was peaceful?
Judging from the cradles who could only sob softly just now, it is quite possible.
During Lu Yi's difficult memories, Fu Qian's eyes passed over the faces of the three team members in turn, and it could be seen that almost none of them doubted his statement.
And if we extrapolate based on this, the cause of the matter seems to be very clear.
The ancient royal family under the supervision of the Nightkeeper was shocked to find an incomprehensible vision after welcoming a new heir.
It is difficult to say that this continuous cycle of rebirth and aging is a manifestation of the legendary bloodline of gods and men.
But there is no doubt that this is enough to arouse the vigilance of the night watchman.
It is completely understandable for parents to want to avoid extreme situations within a controllable risk range.
But the risk range that other people with interests in the family can tolerate is undoubtedly smaller.
This banquet should be the final result of a powerful game, and the quarrel mentioned by Lu Yi was a sign of a shaky balance.
It's very smooth and even matches my task.
No matter how you look at it, the source of the crying is the key to this dilemma.
"So you don't know where the newborn went?"
At this time, as another person with a mission, Eco, who has always been reticent, may not question Lu Yi's answer, but he still expressed his dissatisfaction.
It was obvious that she had not forgotten her responsibilities. The behavior of the Laria family might be understandable, but there was something really wrong with the target she wanted to check, which made her eager to confirm more clues.
"Benjamin, his mother told me, the little boy's name is Benjamin."
Facing the pressure from another demigod, although he was shocked by the strength of this team, Lu Yi did not flinch and even spoke out a name seriously.
??????55.??????
…
Mr. Eco didn't seem to care that much about the name of the target, but the serious emphasis from Lu Yi fully conveyed the emotion called "firmness".
While there was progress, the clues seemed to be cut off at the same time.
She looked away and looked around. In a bad mood, she did not express her anger at the newly rescued person, but tried to find other valuable information on her own.
"Sir Lu Yi, I still have a small question."
Seeing that everyone was deep in thought, Fu Qian came out at the right time and casually deepened the content of the conversation just now.
"You mentioned that you were unusually quiet at the time. I want to know if little Benjamin behaved the same way during this process? For example, did he cry?"
"Of course there is..."
The appearance of Fu Qian clearly made Lu Yi a little unsure of his identity, so although the question was strange, after looking at it for a few more times, he still chose to answer seriously.
"After all, the mind is just a baby, and it's normal for it to cry under continuous torment."
"But even then, his crying voice was still very low and his tone was weird, like - wait a minute, I seem to really hear that voice again..."
Lu Yi suddenly fell silent and looked around, with a look of disbelief on his face.
"Again...you want to say that you didn't hear it just now?"
This sudden change obviously touched the nerves of Mr. Jin Ning. She frowned and asked almost instantly.
ah--
Unfortunately, she didn't get an answer. Lu Yi, who was still wondering about the lack of screams, now let out a heart-rending wail.
…
"There's something wrong with him...in his stomach."
Sudden changes, even in such a closed and depressing space, can still have quite an impact.
But the quality of the expert team was reflected at this time.
He immediately put on a defensive posture, but when faced with Lu Yi, whose voice and body were twitching, no one rashly stepped forward, but all looked at Li Hyuk.
The latter also lived up to this expectation and came to a conclusion in one second.
There's something inside!
At his prompting, Lu Yi's lower abdomen, which was covered by his arms, was immediately focused on.
Even though their perceptions were suppressed, everyone present had amazing eyesight and could still see the abnormal movement below through their clothes.
And such a scene is too easy to remind people of the scenes of other "cradles" just now.
Could it be that the thing was hiding in his stomach? But Lu Yi had even purified himself just now and didn't seem to react at all.
Is it so hidden...
The moment the idea emerged, Eco noticed that Mr. Li had already taken a step forward and held out the weapon in his hand without hesitation.
Chi——
At that moment, it can be seen that Lu Yi subconsciously acted to protect him.
However, even though it was almost an unconditioned reflex, it still failed to have any blocking effect before the decisive measures that shocked everyone at night.
The golden light flashed past, and Lu Yi's surging lower abdomen was accurately cut open.
Even the force was extremely precise, and the skin, muscles, peritoneum, and completely overlapping incisions did not go any deeper.
And the first thing that struggled out of this surgical-level exit was tangled gray hair.
